Agriculture has been a deep-rooted part of the Indian society. The festival of

Makar Sankranti is celebrated across the country in different ways, with people

welcoming the new season of harvest in their own cultural way. On this day, many

pray to the deity of knowledge and wisdom (Goddess Saraswati) for clarity of

mind. This festival highlights the importance of pulling back from unethical and

unhealthy behaviours, while practising for

peaceful and positive ones instead.

Significance of the Festival

‘Makar’ refers to the zodiac, Capricorn and

Sankranti’ means transition. Also called Makar

in Sanskrit, this festival celebrates the Sun's shift

into Capricorn. According to Astrology, the

planet, Saturn, rules the zodiac sign Capricorn.

And this planet is believed to be Surya Dev’s

(Lord Sun’s) son. In short, this means that during

this time, the Sun comes to stay with His Son. This period also signifies letting go

of any grudges and quarrels, leaving behind any old bitterness and resentment to

allow one to let in the beauty and love that the world has to offer! With the energy

and encouragement from the Sun, establish more meaningful relationships with the

people you love, let go of the silly arguments and fights and focus on the happy

times. Celebrate this festival by spreading positive vibes to your loved ones.

Different parts of the country celebrate the festival in myriad cultural forms. Every

region has different names, and different ways of celebrating; based on the rituals

and customs according to their local culture and traditions.

Makar Sankranti festival is known as Magh Bihu in Assam, Uttarayan in Gujarat,

Pongal in Tamil Nadu, and Lohri in Punjab.

ACTIVITIES

In earlier days, length of a foot, width

of a palm, etc. were used as units for

the measurement of length. One of

the oldest methods of measurement of

length was ‘Cubit’. It is the length of

the arm from elbow to the finger tips.

These units differed from person to

person making the measurements

non-uniform. To maintain uniformity in measurements a set of

standard units of measurements have been accepted all over the

world. The International System of Units (SI) is one of the standard

systems of units that are followed across the globe. In SI system

‘meter’ is the basic unit of length. C.G.S system is another system of

units in which the fundamental unit of length is centimeter. Fig. 1

“Time management” is the process of organizing and planning

how to divide your time between specific activities. Good time

management enables you to work smarter – not harder – so that

you get more done in less time, even when time is tight and

pressures are high. Failing to manage your time damages your

effectiveness and causes stress.
